Touchless Proximity Sensor as Used in the Anigmo Dimmer

You see and feel the effects of the technology of a touchless proximity sensor in commercial uses - in banks, in airports, in hospitals, in restaurants and in stores. When you step through the supermarket"s door and it opens without manual effort on your part; when you enter a hospital sterile area and you are automatically reminded to disinfect and an antiseptic outlet dispenses a preprogrammed amount into your hands; when you wash you hands before and after eating using an automatic faucet and dryer; when you go through security checks without strange hands groping you; all these are nevertheless some of the many commercial uses being applied to the touchless proximity sensor. With this technology, infection is substantially reduced by reason of no physical contact is necessary; it has been shown that hospitals and public washrooms have the highest risk for contamination. Also, with a touchless proximity sensor, inconveniences like misunderstandings from unwanted
physical human contact and clumsy manual operation are reduced. The great news is that the technology is instantly being used by Anigmo for residential use, more specifically in its range of dimmers. The touchless proximity sensor installed in an Anigmo Touchless Dimmer allows for touchless operation of your lights, which is convenient when you have no patience for unsightly and ungainly toggle switches. Moreover, with an Anigmo Touchless Dimmer you have a highly reliable flash switch with a extended functional life, courtesy of the lack of mechanical parts that are subject to wear and tear. The reduction of infection risks and the disposal of old-fashioned brilliance switches with equally old-fashioned cover plates are just added bonuses. By the way, the decorative wall plate to an Anigmo Touchless Dimmer comes in at least 28 pre-designed styles, though you can fabricate one of your own for a personalized touch. The touchless proximity sensor in an Anigmo Touchless D
immer works when an object (in this case, a hand) enters the detection field. Capacitive sensors then activate the dimmer to either turn it on or off. You just wave your plam about an inch from the Anigmo Touchless Dimmer and it turns on or off; when you hold your participation steady, it activates the dimming function of the touchless proximity sensor. This is certainly tons preferable than the radial knobs of old-fashioned dimmers; you still have to manually operate the dimmer switch, which exposes it to faster wear and tear. Also, the ability of the Anigmo Touchless Dimmer to remember its previous brightness setting is a definite and substantial improvement from the radial dimmer"s constant adjustments. You can preset it before going away to get your date, and voila! Upon entering the house, you already have the genuine ambience! Furthermore, the touchless proximity sensor in any Anigmo Touchless Dimmer is programmed such that only an object with an adequate ma
ss/dielectric constant (again, in this case, a hand) can activate it, and only within an inch of the dimmer"s control unit. Thus, accidental turn offs and turn ons are avoided, all the more if a horde of flies comes flying to it. Full text: http://computerandtechnologies.com/technology/news_2008-06-04-03-00-04-253.html
